“A couple of calls,” the 49ers general manager reported at his annual, pre-NFL Draft press conference on Monday. “I’d imagine if there is interest, (trade talks) will heat up. As of right now, like I said, we’ll listen. But we also feel extremely comfortable that we can get some game-changing players there, and that’s a good feeling.”

This is the second time in three years Lynch has gone into the draft with the No. 2 overall pick, and he said he doesn’t plan to be choosing that high in the future. The spot, however, does have its advantages.

If the Cardinals, picking at No. 1, take Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray like many suspect, it means the top player on the 49ers’ draft board falls to them at No. 2. If Arizona ends up taking the player the 49ers covet and Murray remains available, Lynch’s phone might suddenly perk up.
